OVERVIEW
Raj Singh received his M.B.A. degree in 1985 from the local college and
he went to work for ECC, Ludhiana.
A) From the above case study, we found that Raj Singh had allocated
the overhead expenses on basis of Direct Labour / Hour to
various products.
B) We have also the seen that total cost of the product was also
increased as we move from 1st to 2nd and 3rd Quarter.
C) The reason for increase in total cost was due to increase in the
overhead expenses and minisculine increase in direct expense too.
We found that overhead expenses increased from Rs. 3, 70,216 to
Rs. 3, 83,998 to Rs. 3,93,992.
D) Mr. Singh was in dilemma that he should make or buy the
product as bid price was quite low as compared to cost of
production in the 3rd quarter.
Now, he had to take the decision whether he should make or buy the
product, before making his decision it had to be insured that cost has
to be calculated in correct manner i.e. the allocation of overheads is
done correctly to all the products. For the allocation, we have given
the alternatives.
Actual Data
overheads actual
departmental 1,00,216 2.509774178
depreciation 1,20,000 3.0052377
general 1,50,000 3.756546722
total 3,70,216 9.2715586
Alternative 1
Overheads allocation on the basis of Units Produced:
In the above exhibit we have allocated the overheads on the
basis of the units produced. But the problem in this allocation
was that we again relied on a single macro variable i.e. units
produced which again might not be appropriate for allocation
of overheads.
Alternative 2)
Allocations of Departmental supervision overhead on the basis
of Direct Labour Hours and Depreciation and General
overheads on the basis of units of Production.
